In 2005 a website known as
CDNN aka cyber diver
news network stole images from Leigh Bishops deepimage photography website without
prior permission. Leigh Bishop & Deep Image staff tried to contact them
without any success of reply. As a result of informing cyber diver news network
of their copyright infringement the editors of
CDNN chose not
to apologise but to begin a hate campaign against deepimage, Leigh Bishop and
his friends. To date
CDNN has no fixed address and have no
means of contact.
CDNN reporters remain hidden behind the internet.
CDNN move from host to host every time they are removed from their current server
through continuous complaints and legal matters.
Still to this day the
CDNN cyber diver news network tarnish
well respected photographer and dive industry lecturer Leigh Bishop as a criminal.
Leigh Bishop was contacted by a group of people that named themselves as the
anti
CDNN alliance, these people also turned out to be past
victims of
CDNN internet abuse. We are reliably informed the
anti
CDNN alliance has exposed
CDNN as known
spammers, copyright infingers & serial photograph thieves to the diving
industry. Deepimage can vouch for the fact that
CDNN are photograph
thieves and will crop copyright notices from your images, deepimage cannot comment
if they are spammers or not but the advice we are given is refer from surfing
their site to avoid spy ware and do not give them your mailing address. Evidence
of spamming by
CDNN can be sourced on this link

We thought the character defamation attacks by cyber diver news network were
personal now we have discovered they have taken photographs and articles from
dozens and dozens of professional people around the world without permission!
We were not alone! While
CDNN continue to write false and outrageous
statements about UK based photographer Leigh Bishop & well known US photographer
/ author Brad Sheard among others across their web pages deepimage photography
website (where images have been stolen from) will remain as a professional body
and refrains from lowering its standard to that of the cyber diver news network.
Therefore we will not attack those who attack us in the same derogative manner
but instead tell the truth as it is. This matter is now in the hands of our
legal team who are collating relevant evidence.
